McKinsey & Company Anyone done a McKinsey & Company case interview for the Operations practice lately?

I have a VC/GE interview coming up (phone screen) and personally don’t know much about the space , it’s just an area that has always seemed interesting.

Does anyone have Recommendations on how to get up to speed/good questions to ask during the phone screen?

I would assume the first call will be pretty standard to any other company, but just want to be prepared.

Do you actually take the time to reject people after initial interviews? Or do you wait for the candidate to reach back out to you? I’ve noticed a lot of agencies don’t seem to follow up

Tomorrow I have an interview with the partner of a fundraising and M&A boutique for tech startups, who’s also an active VC. Any tips? Although I’m currently at a B4, I have some corp dev experience at a tech unicorn. Thanks.

BCG: What are the steps in the interview process for generalist consulting role for lateral hires. How many rounds, what in each round? If someone who went through the process recently can elaborate, that would be really helpful.

Thanks ☺️

Hi fishes,
Need your thoughts.
I am done with my client interview and it went well but they are asking me to come to gugaon location.
I am from Bangalore location.
I directly said to client that I can't since I have my family here.
When I inform this to my manager he is saying how come u say like this to client.according to kpmg policy u need to travel to anywhere to work.
This is not good right. What should be my reply to the client in such a case and how to handle manager on this?

How is the work culture and policies at Hexaware?
I have cleared the interview rounds and about to negotiate for salary.
With 10 years of IT experience and expertise in cloud computing how much can one expect? Already holding an offer of 23 LPA.

I've cleared the technical and managerial round in Citiustech. I will have my HR discussion tmrw. My current CTC is 12.75 LPA. I've asked for 17 LPA fixed during the initial stage of interview schedule. Will they offer as my expectation ?

Hi all! Interviewing for a BusDev role at Westwing. Also considering HelloFresh, Deliveroo, Tik Tok. Would love to get a view of these Europe exits, I’m wanting to move from Africa.

I’m interviewing for a compliance role with Edward Jones. I’ve been in wealth Management for 10 years and I’ve never interviewed for this type of job before. What should I expect from the questioning? I’ve never been in compliance before, would they really take me or am I filling a quota?

I currently work as an APM at a FAANG company but recently received an offer to join an MBB. I’m very excited about the role but didn’t realize I’d need to take a pay cut when I applied (~100k base + ~20k bonus + ~60k equity vs. 90k base + 10-20k bonus). Considering that I currently work 40-60 hours/week, I’ll be making significantly less per hour at the MBB. I’m very interested in the opportunity but also don’t want to make a poor financial decision early in my career. Thank you for your time!

So, you’ve reached the stage of your career where you care more about cashing a fat paycheck than making “creative ads”. You’d rather have the resources and free time to fulfill your creative itch outside of work than try to sell the next big idea to an 28 year old marketing manager with an annual budget of 150k. How do you make the absolute most money as a copywriter while still working a 9-5? Asking for... a... friend?

What can I do outside the office to boost my resume and be a substantially more attractive candidate for top consulting firms in ~12 months time. Working in disputes and valuation role but want to go into management consulting next year (post MBA role). I feel like my job isn’t enough because skills aren’t considered as transferable outside this field.
